200+ pages into this, Does it get good or should I drop it?
>>24766102It’s a slog all the way through and at the end he cries about some overly emotional whore.
>>24766174Should I read another Dostoevsky book or are they all the same?
>>24766102If books don't capture me enough that I read them in one go I just drop them. And even like half of the ones I do finish turn out to be pretty meh in the end.
>>24766102Chuck it. Dostoevsky believed in redemption through suffering, starting with his readers.
It's Dostoevsky's best novel. Take that however you may.
>>24766177I vowed never to read fiction after I finished C&P, so I don’t know. I’m currently reading the first volume of Churchill’s War by David Irving alongside the Ars Notoria Matthias Castle translation.
>>24766245>I vowed never to read fiction after I finished C&Pwhy?
>>24766340I just realized I have no interest in fiction.
>>24766370That's like deciding not to eat food after eating a burnt pizza.
2/10 for meToo much punishment; not enough crime.
Just drop it and read for fun. Readimg shouldn't be challenging you should just be able to turn your brain off and let the world and its characters and story wash over you without a thought. I recommend Percy Jackson and the Olympians or Chronicles of Narnia or Eragorn. If you ABSOLUTELY MUST read something difficult you can go with The Lord of the Rings. You should start with The Hobbit though. LOTR literally has poetry in it. If that's not enough for you I guess you can give The Stormlight Archive a try, but that's like a God mode S tier Elden Ring type of challenge. Each book is LITERALLY 1000 pages. WTH!
>>24766490Without sarcasm, Why is C&P so good?I can never express a dislike for a book without getting snarky replies telling me I'm a philistine
>>24766500I've never read it.
>>24766500it's a thriller. if you like serial killer movies you'd probably like C&P
>>24766464I’ve tried reading other fiction; as I said before, I have no interest.
>>24766537Dishonest
>>24766783Fuck dude you're giving me the creeps. Go to /sci/ or something.
>>24766245>I vowed never to read fiction after I finished CPMODS
>>24766823You’re a stupid nigger.
>>24766874>t. Skinwalker sperg who can only read n*n-fiction
>>24766102>>24766183>>24766500>>24766245The idea that everyone should read classic literature is a psyop. If you're bored by it, don't want to read it, and/or can'tunderstand it you got filtered and you should do something else. Maybe play videogames, read fantasy, or read non-fiction like the anon here said
>>24766894I would anally rape you. Fiction is for little fairy faggots that need a happy fake story to distract them from the misery that is the world. Have fun wasting your time reading your Tinkerbell and Minnie Mouse stories, woman.
>>24766906I wasn’t filtered, I just don’t have sympathy for whiny whores, Christcucks, or old women that rip-off their own community. That cunt deserved to have her head split open.
>>24766908What a weird bait. A huge amount of the best literature is borderline misery porn.
>>24766910You got filtered, aka it's just not for you
>>24766911>and then ANOTHER fake miserable thing happened >and then after that, MORE misery the author conjured up happened Boring. I’d rather jerk off to the stories the Japanese doctors/soldiers/nurses told post-war after working under Unit 731.
>>24766821How? I like serial killer movies and C&P
>>24766102Its a psychological drama, feels like characters are in a bad trip constantly
